Re: Jigsaw blades
Any 5" will do. Pins can be removed from coping saw blades.

Re: Jigsaw blades
Not "any" 5", coping saw blades. My coping saw blades have loops not pins.

Re: Jigsaw blades
Because the Jig Saw is designed differently than the Scroll Saw it cannot use blades designed to cut in both the up and down stroke like a Scroll Saw can. You should only use blades designed to cut in a single direction which for the Jig Saw is the down stroke. The finer the blade the more easily it can be bent in a Jig Saw so use caution.
